My back yard. 8/30/2005
I woke up some Sundays ago, and was having the first roll-up of the day, waiting for my breakfast to be ready, when I heard a barking. Living as high up in the sky as I do, sound travels quite well. This is especially apparent in the wee hours of the morning when the club behind the condo is operating at full volume on Saturday nights.
On this particular occasion, the barking caught my attention, because it sounded closer than usual. So I looked around, and located the source of the noise.
I saw this little dog, playing by himself on the balcony, some 10 stories up in the air. Since that particular morning, I’ve been monitoring that little dog on a semi-regular basis, and he apparently lives on that balcony, permanently. He must be taken into the unit when it rains, because I don’t hear him yelping to be let in. But I’ve never seen him taken off the balcony, for a walk, or runs, or anything. I don’t see anyone playing with him, or giving him a cuddle. A very lonely little dog, living high up in the sky, with only the flying birds, and the clouds, for company.

Poor thing…
People who can’t spend time with their dogs, and cannot give their dogs enough space to run around shouldn’t be allowed to keep dogs.
Pets are not toys. They shouldn’t get him in the first place.
Sad, isn’t it? Not a thought for the dog. Very selfish of the owner.
Saw the same thing at one of the condos in KL. The owner is a girl and she likes dogs, little dogs. But once they’ve grown up, she left them outside the corridor and get another little ones. Never manages their wees and poos and ppl were complaining.
Neeway, nice blog.
